Ivy Tech Community College Columbus is honoring two of its faculty members. School officials say the pair are responsible for “outstanding classroom instruction that has helped students succeed in their education.”

Dr. Rich Lamborn, associate professor of psychology and assistant chair for social and behavioral sciences, has received the President’s Award for Excellence in Instruction for Ivy Tech Columbus. Andrew Strawn, an adjunct mathematics instructor, has received the Adjunct Faculty Award for Excellence in Instruction for Ivy Tech Columbus.

Ivy Tech says the awards are annual recognition of full and part-time faculty members who “typify excellence in instruction and in representing the mission of Ivy Tech.” The awards also nominate Dr. Lamborn for the Ivy Tech Founder’s Award, the highest honor the College can bestow upon full-time faculty members, and Strawn for the Gerald I. Lamkin Award, the highest honor for an adjunct faculty member.
